Ok! I have looked at your guesses, and the colors that I have planned are black, light blue, and white, and so the winners are: Dilopho: blue, Empire3569: Black, Scutosaurus: White, Shadowknight1: black, and raptor64870: blue. Congrats to you guys! You will receive a free Cretaceous Collectables Acrocanthosaurus! (When the line is ready, hoping for next summer.)

Nice! I'll try and save up some postage money! (I live in the UK)  ^-^

Congratulations to the winners! Sounds like an interesting color scheme for sure. I love blue, but don't think I've seen a blue Acrocanthosaurus before.

That sounds like it will look great! Keep us updated on the sculpt!

As for the other people who guessed, you won't be forgotten, because you win the choice of a free Cretaceous Collectables Subadult Sauroposeidon carcass or Enchodus. ;) (Joe289, terrorchicken, Dinolord, Halichoeres)

Got the sculpt for Enchodus done! Sorry for the poor quality photos Halichoeres, it looks much more detailed in person.
Base:

Exciting!

Agreed! The dinos are nice, but the fish is far more intriguing! Maybe it's the photo angles, but will the fish have the exagerrated front teeth that Enchodus is so notable for?

Yes it does. ;) I can post a head on view if you'd like.

I would appreciate that! An dI curse that I've been so busy, I didn't notice the opportunity to try and win it (I know, the Acro was the grand prize...but I'm more into the fish myself!). I should pay more attention.

Don't worry, you'll still be able to get it, when I get the mold made and release it. And here is a multi-view of the Enchodus on its base.

In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

Woo!  I never win anything! ;D  And that sounds like an impressive color scheme, very different from what I usually see in Acros!

I'm feeling pretty ill today. :( But I'm still working on the Acro anyway.... Dedication at its finest. ;)

Wow, that head looks great! Depending on how it turns out this might be one of the best Acrocanthosaurus figures that will be available!
I mean, apart from high-end stuff like statues and model kits. But they're not figures.
Are you going to give it feathery arms like your icon?  ??? That would be cool!
One day I hope to pick up the Collecta one too but since I know I could get this in 2017 possibly i'm reconsidering...

I'm not AcroSauroTaurus, so you can take this with a grain of salt, but if you look at the arms of the figure they appear to be feathered.

I can see something in the arms too, maybe the "guide" to sculpt the feathers.
